Hello All,

I got one answer from Casper Dik saying the even though the -16 patch is
present on the XVR-1000 CD, it might not yet be released through sunsolve
and that this is not unusal. (Thanks Casper).

Inspecting the log from the initial failed patch install revealed the it
failed to install because of "unknown" pkg errors. A subsequent install
went without trouble. I'm backing out this patch until it's officially
released and also because I realized that it's the XVR-500 that is a FFB3,
not the XVR-1000.. I still cannot understand why this early patch made its
way on the XVR-1000 CD then but maybe I'm missing something..
